it was about noon, i had a little time while patients were getting discharged, and while i was waiting around, you called, my phone buzzed in my pocket, i thought about ignoring it, but i remembered it could be you, so i pick up without looking, knowing its you, hopefully, but i needed to make it quick

“hey babe, im really busy but—are you okay?” i ask after i hear your breathing, something isnt right, i can feel it, i know you
